Bull dozers are powerful machines that can turn a seemingly impossible job into a much easier one. But driving a 'dozer is not as simple to learn and master as driving a car, or even a truck. Learning to handle a bulldozer--like learning to handle many types of heavy equipment--takes time, energy, and the experienced assistance of trained professionals.

If you're looking for this kind of training--or if you're looking to give yourself an edge into the competitive world of heavy equipment use--then the best place to go is the Heavy Equipment Operating School in Eugene, Oregon. With almost ten years of experience training newcomers and novices in all the details of heavy equipment operation, we have proven ourselves to be one of the best schools in the country. Our low tuition, beautiful campus, and in-depth courses all combine to form a quick and efficient education.

Here at The Heavy Equipment Operating School, we offer two regular courses. The first is a beginners' course, which takes place over three weeks of all-day classes; the second is a similar course, but expanded to include six weeks of classes. Both courses are provided to give you the skills you need. Leaving the beginners' class, for example, you will find yourself completely in possession of all the knowledge needed to layout and grade an excavation site. You will also have had hands-on experience with a variety of different pieces of heavy machinery, including bulldozers.

It's difficult to overstate the degree to which this kind of training can help you land a job. Employers generally hire the man or woman who they think can best handle their equipment--and after graduating from HEOS, you will certainly be at the top of their lists. In addition, our Job Placement office helps shepherd graduates into available jobs, to make that difficult first step easier.
